That's pretty much exactly what I'm telling you. Or at least that I won't rule that possibility out.[/quote]
I'm with Chris on this one. Each year, I make thousands of DVD-R copies of high school and community performances. Compatibility issues are rare, but when they happen they are totally unpredictable. Might be an old machine, might be a new one. Might be the brand of disc I used, might be the software I used to burn the disc. You just never know.
Meanwhile, of course, all of this means nothing to the person who can't play the DVD, because the movies he rents from Blockbuster play fine so therefore my disc MUST be defective. What Chris and I are both saying is that it's just not that simple.
